A very simple book that tells us how friendships might change and how we would feel afterward. It makes us aware of the inevitability of losing friends as life moves on.
Title: Walter Had a Best Friend
Author: Deborah Underwood
Illustrator: Sergio Ruzzier
Publisher: Beach Lane Books
This story is about two best friends - Walter and Xavier. They love doing everything together - hiking, boating, painting - you name it. But, gradually, when time moved on, they just stopped being best friends. Yes, one friend can move away from the friendship, while the other one feels extremely depressed about it. Similarly, here Walter feels gloomy and unenthusiastic about everything around him, when Xavier leaves him for someone else! Eventually, he starts feeling lonely.
Time moves on and one day, Walter wakes up and just like that, feels that it is going to be a good day. He longs to start everything anew and gets a tiny bit hopeful. He plans to go on a hike that day, when he meets Ollie. Is this Walter's new best friend?
📚 A beautiful and thoughtful message - building a great friendship, losing the best friend, moving on into a new friendship.
📚 Illustrations are sweet and absolutely delightful.
